My Optimized Immortal Life

After returning to the island with the old turtle, Xu Lingxin was surprised to see that Chen Qing brought back a turtle monster.

However, the old turtle reacted quickly. It looked at Xu Lingxin and immediately spoke.

"Hello, Madam."

After saying this, Xu Lingxin couldn't help but smile, then looked at Chen Qing.

"Chen Lang, did you just receive this?"

Chen Qing nodded after hearing this.

"This old turtle is quite compatible with my personality. Moreover, it has been cultivating in the Great Desolate Marsh for nearly a thousand years and is very familiar with the situation here. With its help, we should be able to find a way out of the Great Desolate Marsh soon."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, the old turtle under his seat couldn't help but speak.

"Master, do you want to leave the Great Wasteland?"

"Yeah," Chen Qing nodded and continued.

"We both came from the State of Song. There is some unrest there right now. To protect ourselves, we entered the Great Wilderness Marsh."

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across the old turtle's face. It always felt that something was wrong.

It looked at Chen Qing, then at Xu Lingxin, and sensed that both of them were at the Jindan level of cultivation, and couldn't help but think in its heart.

It seems that my master and the old turtle have something in common.

The old turtle immediately remembered that the jade slip it had obtained from the fleet had stated that the fleet came from the State of Song. According to the records in the jade slip, there was only one fourth-order demon king-level strongman in the State of Song. Even if a riot occurred, it would not allow the Jindan cultivator to escape or even enter the Great Wilderness Swamp, which was extremely dangerous for cultivators.

However, Laogui did not understand the so-called "turmoil" that Chen Qing mentioned, so he was not sure whether Chen Qing was trying to escape or had planned it in advance.

You still need to observe more to see what kind of personality your master has.

It thought so.

While the old turtle was thinking about how to understand Chen Qing better, Chen Qing also explained the old turtle's origins to Xu Lingxin.

Xu Lingxin didn't mind Chen Qing accepting the old turtle. After all, there were only her and Chen Qing, plus a cold stone python, on the entire island. The island was still too empty, and now with such an old turtle that was more than ten feet long, it felt a little more fulfilling.

Thinking of this, Xu Lingxin called out the Cold Stone Python.

A giant python that was about seven or eight feet long emerged from the bushes behind Xu Lingxin.

Although the current Cold Stone Python's cultivation level is not as good as Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin's, it is not weak either, and has reached the second level. After all, the two of them have made great progress in their cultivation, and there are still many elixirs left from their previous refinements to improve their cultivation level. Some of them were sold by Chen Qing, and most of the rest went into the Cold Stone Python's stomach. With the help of the elixirs, the Cold Stone Python's cultivation level naturally increased very quickly. Now, only a dozen years after its birth, it has grown to the second level. This speed is far beyond that of ordinary monsters.

The cold stone python emerged from the bushes, its huge body winding on the ground. It looked at Xu Lingxin, then its snake pupils moved forward and saw the old turtle under Chen Qing's seat.

This seemed to make it a little excited, and it immediately crawled over and kept looking at the old turtle.

The old turtle was a little surprised to see that Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin also raised a cold stone python, but he didn't care. After all, human cultivators also raised quite a few monsters, at least that was what was recorded in the jade slips it had read.

Seeing that the cold stone python was extremely curious about the old turtle, Chen Qing walked down from the old turtle and then gave it instructions.

"Don't hurt this cold stone python."

After saying that, Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin walked into the depths of the island together.

Seeing Chen Qing leaving, obviously wanting to leave the cold stone python to himself, the old turtle couldn't help but reveal helplessness on his face. He looked at the cold stone python in front of him. The latter was only at the second level of cultivation, which was too low for him. However, if the old turtle wanted to hurt it, it would not be easy.

The cold stone python gradually approached the old turtle. Seeing that the latter did not reject it, it became more and more bold and directly climbed onto the old turtle's back and rode on it.

Still a child.

Seeing that the cold stone python had not yet developed any intelligence and was not very old, the old turtle couldn't help but think in his heart.

Then it took a step forward, preparing to find a place to stay on the island. After all, now that it was taken in as a mount by Chen Qing, its original cave could naturally be abandoned, but the jade slips it had obtained could be taken away.

The old turtle felt that Chen Qing would be interested in those jade slips.

Ever since the old turtle was taken in as a mount by Chen Qing, Chen Qing's life has returned to normal. He practices regularly every day, and his enlightenment, formation skills, and alchemy skills have all improved slightly. Although he has not reached the third level, he is not far away.

In addition, the old turtle also took advantage of the time when the cold stone python was resting to move all the things in its cave. For some reason, the cold stone python seemed to have a special liking for the old turtle. Since the old turtle came, it often relied on it. Only when it needed to rest and sleep would it climb down from it and go to hibernate in the lake on the island.

The old turtle's jade slips naturally attracted Chen Qing's attention. This was exactly what the old turtle intended. After all, these jade slips were taken out for Chen Qing to see.

After reading these jade slips, Chen Qing was somewhat disappointed.

Most of the records on these jade slips are about the entire situation of Song State, such as how many sects, how many cultivators, how many prefectures and cities there are in Song State, etc. They are of no use to Chen Qing.

However, after thinking about it, Chen Qing felt something was wrong. Why did the Three Island Alliance take these jade slips that recorded the situation of Song State away from Song State? Moreover, Chen Qing discovered that these jade slips recorded in great detail how many cultivators were stationed in each prefecture in Song State and where each sect was located.

This is indeed extremely wrong. After all, the countries bordering Song State have some understanding of the situation in Song State and do not need this common sense. Moreover, the Three Island Alliance is staying in the Great Wilderness Swamp, so there is not much use in keeping this information.

As for collaborating with the enemy, this is even more impossible. After all, when the Three Islands Alliance left, although the Demonic Path had not yet invaded, it had already infiltrated into the Song State and did not need the Three Islands Alliance to provide information.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Qing couldn't come up with a solution.

Yes.

He sighed.

The situation in Song is extremely complicated, and the departure of the Three Islands Alliance is full of doubts, but Chen Qing is not strong enough, and even if he wants to find out, he is powerless. However, as long as he does not hinder Chen Qing's practice, even if Song is destroyed, it has nothing to do with Chen Qing.

Now, Chen Qing has settled in the Great Wilderness and found a primary medium-sized spiritual vein. The problem of cultivation has been solved, and everything only requires time to accumulate.

After I have cultivated to the late stage of Jindan, I can consider leaving this place.

Before that, if you find a way to leave the Great Wilderness Swamp, you should explore it first and find out the situation there.

Chen Qing made his next plan and walked into the bamboo building with Xu Lingxin. The two had been together all the way, going through many ups and downs, and their feelings were extremely deep. Now that they had both advanced to the Jindan stage, they had to celebrate properly.
